The president of Georgia reacted to the information spread by Ukrainian intelligence about smuggling in court today.
The third president says the Georgian authorities must prove that the information is indeed incorrect, but as Mikheil Saakashvili says, Ukraine's intelligence is largely based on British and U.S. intelligence:
"Yesterday it was reported that military units were being transferred to Russia through Georgia. I don't want to believe that this is true. Ukraine usually relies on British and American intelligence.
They accused Gia Lortkipanidze, but Gia Lortkipanidze works in a different department, in the SBU, in counter-intelligence, this is the Ministry of Defense.
I want to say that if it is true, God forbid it is true, but it is rather western intelligence, the blood of Dato Gobedzhishvili, Bakhva Chikobava, Dato Ratiani, our Bero and many other Ukrainian and Georgian fighters are in the details of each of these tanks.
Georgia can not participate in this, so we promise to surrender, capitulation is being prepared here and if they say that the Ministry of Finance rejected the contraband, that we will comply with the sanctions, we must be shown evidence."If these products are really stopped at the border and not allowed through, there should be evidence, it should be published, and we should all know, and only then can we believe it," said Mikhail Saakashvili.
